s/o baby fever (totally random)

[Doc_Lobster]

I am 35 and have yet to have any desire whatsoever to have kids. At this point in my life I am getting pretty set in my ways and I feel like even if I did start to want one I might not do it because it would seriously cramp my style.

I'm turning 36 this year.

Meh.

Don't so it bc you think you are supposed to want to. If you don't, that's ok.

Also, hi! Lets catch up soon:)

When I got married at 25, I thought 30 would be a good age to have kids, well, one kid actually. 30 came and gone. I'm almost 34 and a kid is still not on the horizon. I feel somewhat less pressure to get started because we do not want more than one. So, right now I feel like 40 would be my cutoff. That gives just over 6 years to get things going.

I'm a little confused. I thought you were dealing with IF. Do I have you confused with someone else?

[mudslide]

Oh okay. Sorry, I thought you were dealing with IF! I wonder who I got you confused with.

Yes! Sorry...my new "job" has me distracted. I put job in parenthesis because it's a huge joke of a job. Basically I'm her paid friend. We went to lunch, then shopping and nails done on Friday

sounds like an awesome job!

i'm 32. no kids yet.

i'm going to reevaluate at 34.

38 is my cutoff.

[mudslide]

Okay. I understand now. It's your life, you can be indifferent if you want, whatever is right for you!

I'm going to be 36 this year as well. This is the first time in a long, long time that I have had some very small, small feeling of wanting to try for a baby. But if it doesn't happen than meh, I'm ok with it.

I always thought I might want to have one child.

I was 37 when I got married in 2010. We start dating in 2004, and lived together for about 4 years before he proposed. We pulled the goalie as soon as he asked due to our "advanced age."

So, I got a late start, and I was 37 when E was born.

I never really had baby fever, but since having E, I have developed more empathy towards babies and parents.

ETA: I was also diagnosed with PCOS, and was put on metformin.  I was told that the birth control pills can mask symptoms, so I never really knew I had PCOS until around 2009-2010.
